Hey Frammers! You know how disappointed we are to not have Taryn Newborne and the Boilermaker Jazz Band at Fram as planned on March 19. Here's the next best thing! We're thrilled to work with Paul to bring you the band LIVE in your living room during our normal Fram time! #VirtualFrimFram
Tune in, tip what you can, and help out the band! Here are the details from the Boilermakers’ Paul Cosentino:
The Boilermaker Jazz Band will be performing a Virtual Swing Dance LIVE from MY Living Room!! On this page we'll call it #VirtualFrimFram!
Tune in on Thursday, March 19 at 9pm EDT at facebook.com/bmjazzband for 2 hours of LIVE swing music perfect for dancing and listening. We were scheduled to play Frim Fram on this date, and when talking to Ryan Swift about the cancellation, he floated this idea to me. We're running with it!!
Virtual Tickets for the show in any amount you'd like to contribute can be sent to:
Venmo @bmjazzband (Paul Cosentino) or PayPal @bmjazzband@gmail.com.
If you buy a Virtual ticket in advance and would like to make a request or have a question for the band please include that and we'll get to as many as we can.
During the show we will also have a Virtual Tip Jar where you can tip the band at the same Venmo and PayPal addresses.
All musicians in the Boilermaker Jazz Band are full time performers and/or teachers. Playing jazz and swing music is our livelihood and our passion- and we love playing for our wonderful friends and fans. In the last few days just about all of our work has disappeared. It has been traumatic financially and emotionally. And we realize this also affects so many of our friends who love to attend live music events and love to dance- it's tragic that we have lost this connection, for now. We hope that you will tune in and ENJOY the music and contribute what you can. We appreciate all of YOU!
